Pakistan crashed out of the T20 World Cup after reaching the Super 8 stage of the tournament.
Meanwhile, their arch-rivals India successfully defended the T20 World Cup title by defeating New Zealand in the final at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad.
Latif, who played 37 Tests and 166 ODIs for Pakistan, said that while Pakistan’s DNA is to lose, India have developed a habit of winning major ICC tournaments.
"Even after losing the toss, they made 250 runs. Nobody will be able to catch them. They have not done this overnight; it is the result of their hard work over the last 10 years or so. See the last ICC events or the Asia Cup," Latif told reporters.
"India's DNA is to win trophies, and our DNA is to lose even before the knockouts. Their DNA is playing the final and winning," he added.
Latif also took a dig at the PCB over the alleged mismanagement of player contracts, calling it a "weak board."
"Weaker boards do this. When you sign a contract, it has everything. Fines and rewards are also mentioned," said Latif.
India won the T20 World Cup title after defeating New Zealand by 96 runs in the final at the Narendra Modi Stadium on Sunday.
The victory made India the first team to win three T20 World Cup titles and also the first to successfully defend the trophy on home soil.
